    Hi folks. I've been doing a bit of engraving again. I thought I'd ask for constructive feedback and tips. on this silver ring I tried winding the pressure down to give me more resistance like I'm used to when engraving titanium and such. I can't believe the palm control will still run...

    troubles joining the cafe

    some friends have been unable to join up. they've tried on phones and laptops using different emails. .... there's a question it asks about an historical figure who was also an engraver? maybe the question could be more easy to answer so folk getting into engraving can join here. ??

    Critique Request First scroll

    Top effort. I see a lot of influnce from 3D work like wood carving in that drawing. I like a lot of what I see. Most of the time when I draw, all or most of the elements at least, make it all the way to touching the scroll in the middle, whereas lots of your leaves stop short. I like the...

    How to colour/lacquer/paint hand engraved watch dials/guilloche

    I watched a youtube video showing heating up brass filings in a cup with a watch hand sitting on top to get a really controlled heat colouring of the hand. probably not exactly what you were looking for. I'd love to know more about how to colour work, I've seen some amazingly coloured gun...

    Ready to try some metal?

    some tips Turn the paper over and over and over and over while drawing and your scrolls will be better shaped. Most people's vision shows a circle as being slightly oval either heightways or sideway, that and you're looking at your work from an angle most of the time... for many reasons...

    Lindsay border scribe

    I bought the lindsay scriber jigger... I didn't find it particularly easy to use to get great results compared to starret dividers. I think them or maybe the jewellers ones would be my top recommendations, starret being the cheaper of the two. Who's the jeweller/stone setter who makes his own...

    stainless steel for engraving

    Edge quenched w2 buttery and beautiful. 416 great. 440c before heat treat is very nice. I should keep a record of everything I do. Some titanium is beautiful, some is agonizing... I forget which is which.

    Trying to get into bulino engraving

    I'd like to get as good at bulino as Firmo Fracassi. That's a very tall order I know. I do tend to aim high, but if I don't I won't see how good I can get. How do I get from where I am to there? I do have the two DeCamillis dvds where he does bulino of grass and reeds and water and birds...

    What graver steels for what jobs?

    I just thought I'd add to this thread that I've heard from a few folk that M48 is great for engraving titanium (chipping out less than carbide). available here https://www.airgraver.com/graver-blanks.htm only I think as it's one of Lindsay's steels and I don't think anyone retails for him as yet.
